Hello Kenichi,

Yes, reading
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/elisp-manual/html_node/elisp_627.html,
this indeed looks like an good way to go. For actual embeddings,
it should work quite nicely.

It feels like a bit of overkill to force syntactically significant
characters such as '<' and '>' to behave as strong LTR by setting
both before the before-string and the after-string property to
LRM, but if it does the job, I won't complain.

Regards, Martin.
